Spark Streaming is one of the most widely used frameworks for real time processing in the world with Apache Flink, Apache Storm and Kafka Streams. However, when compared to the others, Spark Streaming has more performance problems and its process is through time windows instead of event by event, resulting in delay.

The human brain and our algorithms are hardly alike, as Neuroscience and Deep Learning are quite different disciplines, but some of the concepts still give support to some ideas. In this post, we will talk about one of those ideas: the memory.

One of the most fascinating ideas about Deep Learning is that each layer gets a data representation focused on the objective of the problem to be solved. So, the network as a whole generates an idea of each concept, derived from data.

It all started with a call from Adrián Arias, Enterprise Relationship Manager at LinkedIn: “Congratulations Stratio, you are one of our finalists to the “Premios IN”, nominated in the Best Recruitment Team category, only a 5% of our clients make it to the nomination.”

Ever felt daunted by a new role? Remember that feeling when you have just started at a new company? As Scrum Master, the feeling is still relatively raw… In today’s modern company, it is common to hear conversations about how to define the main responsibilities of a Scrum Master.

Deep learning applications are now truly amazing, ranging from image detection to natural language processing (for example, automatic translation). It gets even more amazing when Deep Learning becomes unsupervised or is able to generate self-representations of the data.

On March the 26th 2012, James Cameron and his submarine craft, Deepsea Challenger, explored the depths of the ocean down to 11km under sea level at 11.329903°N 142.199305°E, an infinitesimal point on the surface of the Earth’s vast Oceans.

Our participation at Spark Summit 2017 in San Francisco was once again a great experience. Not only because of the quality of the speakers, but the special atmosphere built up by Spark lovers. To enliven the breaks between sessions talks, we brought a riddle, inviting all attendees to solve it.
